Proper Feeding of Sheep.

If the sheep that are kept on barren
places where the heritage is scanty are
noticed, it will be seen that the tend
bncy is for their bodies to grow long
and thin, instead of round and COM
pact, like those kept on good pastures.
They will be found long-legged, too,
and quite different in every way from
those that have had the benefit of that
care which tends to develop the sheep
to its full capacity. Improvement in
sheep may be effected by selection in
breeding, but no matter how much
pains is taken in this direction unless
proper attention is given to feeding
them, little permanent improvement
can be made in flock. At the bottom
of all success in raising sheep, as well
as other kinds of livestock, lies judi
cious feeding, and there is no other sub
ject that merits more careful attention
from breeders. -Natio1dI Live- Stock

THE GRANT BROTHERS.
Two Anecdotes of the Originals of Charles
Dickens "Cheeryble Brothers,"


Dickens "Cheeryble Brothers,"
Readers of Nicholas Nickleby" need
not be reminded of the "Cheeryble
Brothers." The originals were the
Messrs. Grant, whose extensive if some
what eccentric benevolence was well
known, to whom Dickens was intro
duced, in company with Mr.. John
Morley, by Mr.. w. Harrison Ainsworth,
at dinner given by Mr.. Gilbert Winter
in 1858. The survivor of the brothers
used always to put sum of money in
his pocket to give away in the course
of the day. A clergyman asked him
for subscription.
"Put your hand in my side pocket
and you shall have all you can find in
it." The parson did so, and fished up
a sovereign. "You are welcome to it, :"
said Mr.. Grant, "only mind it is the
only coin have left"
He once asked the same clergyman
at dinner what his education had cost
him.
"a matter of 92,OO0," was the an
swer.
I'm afraid" said the questioner,
education is not good Investment.
Here you spent $4,000 on your educa-
ton, and, as you tell me, your curacy
is only ESQ a year. My education

"All right. Here goes. Bring me a

1t was brought, and into that the gin
was poured. The man was dumb

and the work got done. AS he went
away-sober, of course, and with his
wages in his pocket-he turned round
and faced his employer:

A Serious Addiction Nhich Requires Pains.
taking Treatment.

A bone SPAWN is, in a sense, incur
able, because it consists of growth OF
bone at the hook joint, usually at the
inner side, which can not be removed.
This SPAWN is the result of inhamma-
tion of the covering membrane of the
bone, and this causes the growth OF
spongy bony matter which in time
covers the joint and makes it solid and
immovable. At the first there is nc
aameness, but some heat and tender.
ness, hence this disease is 50 often left
until it is too late for a cure. If when
the horse is first seen to suffer in one OF
the hind legs the hook joint is examined
and the heat is discovered it is treated
by means of cold water dressings and
afterward by blistering, the bone SPAWN
may be prevented. After the new and
diseased growth has started the pain is
intense on movement of the joint, and
the horse is very lame. Then blisterine
must be resorted to, but the bone re-
mains to be a permanent cause of lame
ness whenever the joint is used more
hardly than usual. Blood SPAWN is the
result of Inflammation of the parts OF
the limb that are affected by bone and
bog spavins, the hook joint and the
lower part of the leg, and, being a dila-
tation of the veins, should not be inter-
fered with. 1t does not cause lame.
ness, but is only blemish. Bog SPAWN
is sometimes called blood SPAWN, but is
really soft swelling about the hook
Joint or on the line of tendons below it.
1t rarely causes lameness and is the re-
suit of effusion of lymph or serum in the
coveringmembrane of the tendon caused
by Inflammation or a sprain. Spavins
are almost always hereditary and the
result of breeding from spawned mares,
but they arise also from injudicious
driving rapidly down hill, by which too
much strain is thrown upon the tendons
and conclusion of the hook joint occurs
Cold water dressings, with pressure
pads on the soft bog spavins, and
clustering, with rest while under treat
ment, comprise the proper treatment.
Puncturing the soft spavins is danger
,ous mistake as vein may be opened
ignorantly.-M Y. Times.
